Tears aplenty in locker room

Such was the scene in the Cowboys locker room Saturday night after one of the most devastating losses in franchise history.

Heck, it was one of the most devastating losses for any team – playoffs or regular season – in any sport.

I was seriously worried that Romo was going to breakdown while at the podium addressing the media. Fortunately, he held it together and accepted all the blame for his botched snap that allowed Seattle to escape with an improbable 21-20 victory.

Romo wasn’t the only one crying. Andre Gurode couldn’t move. He just sat in front of his locker with a 1,000-yard stare. Jones tried to talk to him, but it did not good. He just sat there, spent, broken.

I’m afraid it’s going to take Romo and this team a long time to recover.
